Both at the famous French Cannes Film Festival this past July and at the recent September New York Film Festival, major media staged a HUGE promotion for IFC Films’ December 3rd release of the movie: BENEDETTA. The release coincides with the Christmas season!
- “One scene in the period drama sees a statue of the Virgin Mary being used as a sex toy, which Comingsoon.net wrote ‘results in just free blasphemy.’ ” ~ People.com
- Director Verhoeven: “The use of sex toys does not appear in the book I based the movie off of, so why did we include it? To intensify the drama.” ~ The Jerusalem Post
REMEMBER “[Benedetta] Carlini never admitted she had engaged in sexual acts.” ~ Encyclopedia.com
- It seems nothing more than a "She said — She said".
“I mean, of course we changed a little bit.”
Director Paul Verhoeven ~ PEOPLE.COM
